Audio-Technica R-Series Professional Open-Back Reference Headphones - ATH-R30X

Audio-Technica ATH-R30X R-Series Professional Open-Back Reference Headphones

The Audio-Technica ATH-R30X R-Series wired open-back reference headphones pair enhanced 40 mm drivers with a broad, detailed soundstage for home-studio production, multimedia creation and everyday listening. Their natural presentation brings depth and realism to music, while an adjustable headband, soft replaceable velour earpads and ventilated earcups support longer sessions. A gold-plated 3.5 mm stereo mini-plug and included 6.3 mm stereo adapter provide two connection sizes. Designed for studios and other private spaces, they introduce developing audio professionals to reference listening.

Key Features

Extended Comfort and Lightweight Design

At approximately 210 g without the cable, the lightweight, durable construction is designed for sustained listening. Adjust the headband to distribute weight and find a secure, flexible fit; soft velour at the ears and breathable, ventilated earcups help maintain comfort as you work through longer sessions. Replacement earpads and a headpad are available separately, allowing those components to be renewed when needed.

Unrestricted 40 mm Driver Performance

Enhanced transducers deliver distinct bass, a clear midrange and smooth, extended high frequencies, helping reveal the fine detail in a mix. Rather than relying on extensive added damping or tuning, the acoustic design lets the drivers move more freely for a clear, low-distortion presentation.

Open-Back Design for Private Listening

Sound passes naturally from the drivers to create an immersive sense of space, with a presentation associated with studio speaker monitoring. This design suits mixing, mastering and creative work in studios or other private spaces, rather than the isolation-focused listening associated with closed-back headphones in public or noisy environments.

3.5 mm Plug and Included 6.3 mm Adapter

A fixed 3.0 m cable provides reach for your listening setup and ends in a gold-plated stereo mini-plug. Connect directly to a 3.5 mm stereo headphone output, or fit the supplied adapter for equipment with a 6.3 mm stereo headphone output. Both plug sizes are covered without a separate adapter purchase.
